The Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, UK, holds a Roman multitool that dates back to the 3rd Century C.E. When unfolded, it has a fork, spatula, pick, spike, and knife blade.
Might be difficult considering they didn't have corn. I suppose it could be made a flatbread, and allow you to get a nice mouthful of delicious garum. Mmm, fermented fish pasty goodness!
I don't understand the function of that lobe at the bottom of the upper arm - it seems to me a heavy enough item could cause the mechanism to hang up (no pun intended) before fully actuating.
